About this listen
The World Fantasy Award-winning third volume of the Lyonesse trilogy brings attention to the faerie changeling Madouc. Where princess Suldrun once meekly endured the proprieties of Castle Haidion, Madouc defends herself with rotten fruit. Vexed, King Casmir arranges a contest to marry her off, but Madouc has other ideas, and enlists the stableboy "Sir Pom-pom" on an impromptu quest to find her father. During their travels, they encounter swindlers, faeries, trolls, ogres, a knight in search of his youth, and a relatively pedestrian item known as the Holy Grail. As the sorcerers Shimrod and Murgen investigate portents of cataclysm in the world of magic, Casmir plans a murder that will bring all the lands under his iron rule; however, his ambitions will be complicated by one small but important oversight-he's failed to allow for Madouc!

Great story
The story concludes the trilogy of books, which in my view can’t be read / listened to separately or out of sequence. It is a sweeping tale with magic, inter-play and warfare. The balance is brilliantly maintained throughout with nothing being rushed or overindulged. Great narration giving me a chuckle with a scene of 2 characters singing. Enjoy.

The masterpiece Madouc
very few people have ever written the way Jack Vance can write and this is yet another shining example of his imagination and his huge skill at writing dialogue. The narration was exquisite and brought each character to life
